Teen Rescued After Getting Stuck in Clinic Shutter During Alleged Ghaziabad Break-In

Police say they will act only if the clinic files a complaint, with the minor under treatment at a government hospital.

Overview

  • The 16-year-old became wedged by the neck between a rolling shutter and the wall at a cardiologist’s clinic in Indirapuram, with the hours-long rescue taking place Saturday.
  • Fire crews from the Vaishali station and local police cut part of the ceiling and worked the shutter open as residents steadied the boy’s body seen in widely shared video.
  • Chief Fire Officer Rahul Pal said the youth was handed to police and shifted to the government hospital in Sanjay Nagar, where officials reported swelling and a serious condition.
  • Station House Officer Ravendra Gautam said a case will be registered only if the clinic owner files a complaint, and juvenile procedures hinge on whether an FIR is lodged.
  • The clip drew heavy online mockery, yet officials confirmed the core facts of a failed theft attempt and a coordinated rescue that prevented a potentially fatal outcome.
